Statement on Charlotte as Host City for the 2020 Republican National Convention

“I am thrilled that the RNC has picked Charlotte as host for the 2020 Republican National Convention. Charlotte is a proven host city and I am certain my home state will welcome delegates and visitors from across the country with the hospitality we are known for. It is a great time to be a Republican and I am excited for my constituents in Western North Carolina who will only have a short drive to witness this momentous event. Thank you to Chairman Robin Hayes and the NC GOP for their leadership in bringing the convention to North Carolina. Thank you as well to the Charlotte City Council for their show of bipartisanship in bringing this economic boost to our state.”
